Researching Pinocchio's family tree.

Pinocchio is believed to be a descendant of the Pine family from the Black Forest area of Germany.
It is thought that some of his kinfolk may have travelled to America as part of the Mayflower.
Any help given wood be much appreciated.

Thanks for all your input folks... what a lovely bunch of people you are.
I bough to your extreme knowledge.
Christopher Robin and Pooh Bear once laid claim that Pinocchio had roots within Five Hundred Acre Wood.
I think they are barking up the wrong tree though.

And now for the Joke you`ve all been waiting for, lets see who will take "a fence" at it, he,he, :-D :-D

Pinocchio had been searching for his parents for several years with no success. One day, as he was wandering through the woods, he happened upon a squirrel. They struck up a conversation, and finally Pinocchio got around to asking the squirrel, “Do you know who my parents are?”

The squirrel replied, “I don’t know the answer, but the wisest animal in these woods is the owl, and you should ask him.”

Pinocchio searched around and finally found the owl. He asked, “Do you know who my parents are?”

The owl was stumped. He said, “You should consult someone who really knows trees, and the finest expert in this field is the woodpecker.”

Pinocchio found the woodpecker and asked him if he knew who his parents were.

The woodpecker replied, “Well, it was a long time ago. I can’t remember the full details. Your father was either a son of a beech or a son of a birch, but your mother was the finest piece of ash I ever had my pecker in.”



I`ll shut the door after me xx :-(

Mr M - I think you mean PooH sticks.


...poo sticks are a totally different matter, and if that is what Christopher Robin threw off the bridge, he is a VERY dirty boy!!!!!
